eMove: Portable Charger for Total Freedom

Whether you’re heading to the mountains, your summer house, or the next client meeting, eMove gives you the confidence to charge wherever you are. The award-winning portable charger from DEFA lets you connect to a regular power outlet and keep your journey going — without compromising on safety, design, or ease of use.


As more and more electric cars hit the road, charging infrastructure continues to expand — yet access isn’t always guaranteed.
“We see that questions about EV road trips often arise among new EV owners. For example: is it really possible to drive out to the cabin in an EV when the nearest charging station is miles away?” says Vegard Vethe, Product Manager for the portable charger eMove, which has won the Red Dot Design Award with the following justification:
“The simple one-button control and practical cable management give this elegantly designed charger excellent usability.”

Vethe continues:
“When visiting places where no charging stations are available, there is often at least a regular power outlet nearby. We developed eMove to eliminate that uncertainty. Every EV owner should have one”.
“My eMove is always in the car. Just a few weeks ago, when I visited friends at their country house, I simply plugged it into a garage outlet. ‘Freedom to move’ was our guiding principle when we developed this award-winning charger — and eMove truly gives me that freedom.”

Many new cars have been delivered with a portable charger included in the trunk. But that’s no longer the case — Mode 2 chargers* are no longer standard equipment for new vehicles.

Marie Ericsson, from Sollentuna, Sweden, is one of many EV owners who decided to buy an eMove after getting a new car without one included.
“We live in Stockholm but have a holiday home in Åre, and we sometimes drive all the way to our other house in Spain. Of course, we got an eMove right after buying the car. It’s incredibly easy to use, and we’ve needed it far more often than we expected. Having it in the trunk gives us real peace of mind whenever we travel far or go a bit off-grid.”

With eMove, you get:

• A safe and smart solution when no fixed charging point is available.
• Single-button control to adjust charging speed or protect your circuit – ideal for homes or locations with limited electrical capacity.
• Exceptional usability and durability, making it the perfect companion to keep in your car.*A Mode 2 charger is a portable charging cable with built-in control and safety features. It includes an integrated control box (ICCB) that monitors the charging process, handles earth fault detection, and ensures proper communication between the car and the power grid. With a Mode 2 charger, you can charge safely directly from a standard wall outlet without the need for a permanently installed charging station.
